Not sure I understand why LA is even in the deal or how they get Kurt for Kwame. Both guys are expiring, but Kurt has more value.

But it's a moot point, the Suns aren't trading Amare.

KT can not go back to the Suns since they dealt him to the Sonics less than a year ago. What could the Lakers add as a sweetener?

Why?
Durant, Amare and a top 3 pick not good enough building blocks for you?

Why would the Suns do this, exactly?
